ABOUT ME

Home Brewing Biography:I started brewing January 1, 2011. Bought myself some equipment for Christmas. I decided to begin brewing my own because I love beer and wanted to learn more about it. A couple of my friends brew and watching them got me thinking about it. I upgraded and built some stuff. I brew with a 10gallon SS kettle on a propane burner. Old coleman 8 gallon cooler. Sanke keg HLT. Ball valves. Copper manifold. Charcoal water filtartion system. 25ft copper IC. Carboys. Chest freezer ferementation chamber. I bottle but am in the process of building a keezer. All Grain, formulate my own recipes with mixed success.

Posted in thread: Water Filter on 05-20-2014 at 07:09 AMOn my hose I cut the end off and added a swivel barb which happens to spray where it swivels. I
